Previously our show was available on 4oD (Channel 4 on Demand) and
on YouTube, but unfortunately it no longer seems to be showing. We
were Episode 3 in Series 5. It's
worth checking this link ... just in case:

An Airport Shuttle service is also available from Brindisi Airport
to anywhere in the Salento Peninsular (please note that the cost of
the journey should be confirmed before travel). Further details
can be found on the following website:

Some useful information for those of us not used to driving in Italy.
Invaluable help and advice on the rules, road signs and parking. Although
Italians have a bad reputation for their driving, it really isn't so difficult
in Puglia. The roads are good and, in my view, driving is really less about
the road rules, and more about a sense of humour and using your common sense.

Example Car Hire Insurance companies, or "Excess Reimbursement Insurance"
for those
wanting to avoid the high excess charges that car rental companies charge. Many other companies also offer this insurance.

The following links are for people interested in finding out more about Puglia.
There are forums, classifieds and general information about travel, food, drink,

Guidebook:

I found The Complete Guide to the Salento in a
small shop in Galatone (Via Leuzzi) and I thoroughly recommend getting a copy. In my view,
it includes much more useful information than the rough guides on the local food
and drink, fiestas,
hidden beaches and it includes lots of hikes and coastal walks.
Unfortunately, the original link doesn't appear to work and I can no longer find
reference to this specific book, however it was produced by Qui Salento
so those of you who speak better Italian than me, may find the following link useful.
